Ingredients

  • 3-4 chicken breasts thawed
  • 1 can cream of chicken soup
  • 1 can broccoli cheese soup
  • 14.5 ounce chicken broth
  • 5 cups broccoli florets steamed or cooked
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • Garlic powder to taste
  • Salt to taste

Instructions

  • Season the uncooked chicken breasts with garlic powder and salt, to taste.
  • Place the chicken breasts into the crock pot.
  • Whisk together the soups and the chicken broth in a bowl.
  • Pour the soup mixture over the chicken breasts.
  • Place the lid on the crock pot and cook on low for 5-6 hours or high for 2-3 hours.
  • When the chicken is cooked, shred the meat and then stir in the sour cream and broccoli.
  • Stir in the shredded cheese immediately before serving.
  • Serve over cooked linguine noodles or rice.

Notes

  1. Chicken Seasoning: Season the chicken breasts with garlic powder and salt before placing them in the crock pot. This adds flavor to the chicken and enhances the overall taste of the dish. You can also add other seasonings like onion powder, paprika, or Italian seasoning for additional flavor depth.
  2. Soup Mixture Consistency: Whisk together the cream of chicken soup, broccoli cheese soup, and chicken broth until well combined before pouring it over the chicken in the crock pot. This ensures that the soups are evenly distributed and creates a creamy sauce for the chicken and broccoli. Adjust the consistency of the sauce by adding more or less chicken broth based on personal preference.
  3. Adding Broccoli and Cheese: Stir in the cooked broccoli florets and sour cream into the crock pot once the chicken is cooked and shredded. This allows the broccoli to absorb the flavors of the sauce while maintaining its texture. Add the shredded cheddar cheese right before serving to melt it into the dish, creating a deliciously cheesy topping. Serve the chicken and broccoli mixture over cooked linguine noodles or rice for a complete and satisfying meal.
